The Garden Route Hub Network will be off line/air for maintenance and upgrade today.

 Notification:   The Garden Route Hub Network will be off line/air for Sunday 3 October 2021.  It is expected that it will be active again by early Sunday evening.  I apologize for any inconvenience as a result but upgrades and maintenance is important to keep the network running efficiently.  I am planning to build another back-up node to be used during upgrading and maintenance in future.  This node will ensure that the network will be operational without any interruptions. 

There will however be a re-transmission of the SARL Bulletin, Pretoria ARC Bulletin and Amateur Radio Today, Monday evening at 19h30/19h45 on the GRHub Network.  The Bo Karoo Amateur Radio Club bulletin will also be re-broadcasted on Thursday evening at 19h30 on the GRHub Network.

I apologize for any inconvenience in this regard.
